The present invention involves a novel type of dirt scraping and hauling vehicledesigned primarily for larger. operations of dirt removal and transportation. The above class of vehicles is being extensively used today in conjunction with large projects where enormous quantities of dirt, earth, or stone, are` required tobe removed from one site to another as where dam projects, levees, and road building contracts,v or the like, are to be built. y

Customarily, dirt scraping andhauling vehicles, such as referred to, involve the'employment of a body for the vehicle having scraping equipment to dig into and scrape up dirt as the vehicle is propelled forwardly either by self contained power or motor means, or by being driven or pushed by traction vehicles. Suitable devices are employed to dump the dirt when received in the vehicle body and to control its spreading when dumped, as well as to hold the dirt in the body during the travel movement ofthe latter to transport the contents of the vehicle from one place to another.

'I'he design of the vehicle of the present invention is novel in that I utilize a special type of frame or chassis which is made up of relatively slidable sections. `Upon one of the frame sections is carried a dirt scraping and holding body or receptacle section, and upon the other of the frame members is carried a scraping and closing body section for cooperation with the dirt scraping and holding section.

Novel means are employed for causing relative raising and lowering movements of the body sections with respect to the supporting ground or traction wheels whereby to properly adjust the body sections for their cooperative work in the operation of filling the scraping and `holdingbody section with dirt or material to be transported by the vehicle.

By reason ofthe relative slidable construction of the frame members of the vehicle, I am enabled to utilize both of the body mernbers as Scrapers, the front scraping and closing body member being adapted by its scraping function to'facilitate the entire filling of the rear scraping and -holding member in order that a maximum load may be received in the latter to be carried from the place of receiving to the place of deposit or spreading.

Novel means for eiecting a dumping action of the rear scrapingand holding body section are provided, and the invention involves other novel details of the construction and operation of the general assembly of parts used.

The general construction of avehicle built in accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 10 is a detailed sectional view of the control valve operated by the steeringwheel.

Specifically describing the invention, I in the 'drawings denotes the frontwheels of the vehicle4 and 2 the rear wheels. The frame of the vehicle is made up of the front frame members 3 and 4 in the form of tubular sections connected by aplate or web 5, and rear frame members 6 and kI which are connected together by spaced plates 8 and 9,'the members `6 and 'l also beingformed ci' tubular sections and being of a suicient size to receive therein respectively the frame members 3 and 4.

The plates or webs 8 and 9 are spaced suiliciently to receive thereby the web or plate 5. It will thus be seen that the vehicle frame is composed virtually of a front section made up of the parts 3, 4 and 5, and a rear section-made up of the parts 6, 1. 3 and 9, in which the front section parts telescope or slide so that by the operation of suitable instrumentalities the entire frame of the vehicle may be collapsed to the condition of Figure 3 from the expanded condition of Figure 2.

The body of the vehicle is made up of the front I scraping and closing section comprising opposite sides I and a front plate II, the latter curving from its upper edge downwardly and rearwardly and having a scraper I2 at its lower edge projecting slightly below the lower edges oi the sides I0. The front section of the body thus described is adapted to slide rearwardly with the front frame section or members previously set forth, since the sides IU and front plate I I are supported by and upon the frame members 3 and 4.

YThe body of the vehicle also comprises a rear section which, for the purposes of this description, is called the dirt scraping and holding section and the same is made up of the sides I3, the bottom I4, and the rear end or wall I5. At the front edge of the bottom I4 is provided the scraper I9. Said dirt scraping and holding section of the body oi' the vehicle is supported pivotally at I1 upon side plates I 8 which depend from the inner webs or plates 8 of the rear frame members or 'section of the vehicle, said depending plates I8 being welded or otherwise secured by bent-out upper end portions IBa attached to the web portions 8 of the rear frame members previously described.

With the above construction in view, therefore, it will be seen that the rear scraping and holding section of the body is capable of movement pivotally upon the supporting or depending plates I8, whereby to be rocked from the lowered full line position shown in Figures 2 and 3 to the tilted dumping position shown in dotted lines in Figure 2. For the mounting of the vehicle body and frame 'upon the wheels I and 2. suitable provisions are had including. in respect to the front vehicle structure. a cylinder I9 having lateral trunnions 20 pivotally connecting the same to the forward spaced extensions 2i projecting forwardly from the lfront frame members 3 and 4 at the forward ends of the latter.

In the cylinder I9 is a piston-22 carried by a vertical post 23 having pivotal connection 24 at its lower end to the center of the front axle 25 of the vehicle, said axle being suitably connected at its endsby stub axles 26, see Figure 5. with the wheels I. Admission of a pressure fluid into the upper end of a cylinder I9 from the conduit 21 will cause downward movement of the piston 22 and effect a relative raising of the front of the frame of the vehicle with the supported parts of the body.

Any suitable steering mechanism may be employed for the wheels I and the axle 25 may be suitably connected to the front side of the closing plate II by brace features, generally shown at 28,having pivotal connection at 29 to said plate or closing member I I.

The steering mechanism may comprise a suitable piston unit 15 rigidly supported on the iront axle 25 by means of a brace 1B.- The piston unit 15 comprises an outer casing 11 having a twoway piston 18 reciprocable therein, parallel with respect to the front axle 25. A piston rod 13 suitably connected to the piston 18 will cause the steering link connected with one of the stub axles 26 by means of the pivot and slot connection 8I to be rotated and effect a turning movement of a wheel I mounted thereon. It will be apparent that by connecting the link 83 by means of a tie rod 82 to the stub axle extension 83 of the other stub axle 26, a coordinated turning movement of the front wheels will be effected, when the piston unit 15 is reciprocated by a pressure fluid alternately entering opposite ends of the piston casing 11 through the conduits 84 and 85, under the control of a valve mechanism 86 located at the rear of the vehicle and controlled by the steering wheel 40 in a manner to be described.

At the rear thereof, the vehicle body and frame are mounted upon the rear axle by means somewhat similar to the piston and cylinder unit feature previously described with reference to the front end of the vehicle,

As shown in Figures 1 and 2, primarily, the rear ends of the frame members 6 project rearwardly beyond the rear section of the body sufiiciently to be connected by a transverse plate or body member 33 receiving in spaced openings therein a pair of cylinders 30, each of which has pivotal connections by suitable trunnions 3I with supporting bracket means 32 on the body member 33 that is carried by the rear frame members 6.

Each cylinder 3B contains a piston 34 on a guiding and supporting post or shaft 35, the lower end of which passes through a guide opening at the bottom of each cylinder 38 and is coupled as shown at 36 to the rear axle housing 31 of the vehicle in which axle housing, an axle 38 drivably connected to the rear wheels 2, is supported.

The rear axle housing 31 is maintained in a driving position with respect to the vehicle by means of the braces 81 and 8B, suitably pivotally engaged with the rear frame members 1 on the pivots 89 and Biliatthe rear inner lower-portions thereof, the lower ends of the braces 81 and 88 likewise having pivotal connection with the rear axle housing 31 by means of the pivots 9| and 92 respectively engaging the couplings 36. It is apparent that as the pressure fluid is released from the pistons, the weight of the body will eiect an upward movement of the pistons 34, and a controlled pivotal movement of the cylinders 30 on the trunnion 3I thereof, will result.

By the admission of pressure iiuid in the upper ends of the cylinders 30, relative downward movement of the pistons 34 may be compelled, and thus upward movement of the frame and body caused in an obvious manner, relatively to the wheels 2. i

It is preferred that the vehicle be propelled by self contained power, for which purpose a motor or engine 38 is carried upon the rear plate structure 33 of the frame, and thus the weight of the .motor is employed to assist for traction purposes being borne directly by the rear wheels 2.

The drive from the motor 38 to the rear axle 98 is obtained by means of a drive shaft 93 having long external splines thereon, slidable in a mating splined member 94 suitably rotatably supported in the housing extension 95 of the rear axle housing 31, and drivably connected to the rear axle 98 through conventional` differential means, not shown, but apparent to those skilled in the art. The end of the drive shaft 93, opposite the splined portion thereof, is connected to asians the power output shaft 91 ot the motor transmission 95 through the means of 'a conventional pair of universal joints 96. The drive is thereby effectively transmitted to the said rear axle 98 in all positions of the rear axle 98 and the wheels after described. The conduits or pipes are only partially illustrated because their arrangement upon the vehicle may be such as is suitable for constructions of this type and is immaterial to the invention.

The steering wheel 40 operates the valve mechanism 86, to be more fully described hereinafter, in a manner to cause the admission of fluid pressure to alternate ends of the steering piston unit 15 for turning the front wheels I. The valve means 86 comprises an outer casing 99 supported on the rear body member I8a by means of an arm suitably rigidly fastened thereto. Within the valve casing 99 may be a conventional rotary valve mechanism adapted to alternately direct the flow of fluid pressure through the conduits 84 and 85, and relieve the pressure in said conduits, as desired, to eiect the turning action of the front wheels I. The valvemay be constructed so as to have fitted therein, a rotary valve element |0I, having a passage |02, with a flared end |03, adapted to direct iluid pressure vto one or the other of the conduits 84 or 85. Arcuate passages |04 and |05 are provided in the valve element IOI to bleed the fluid pressure from the side opposite the pistonl 18 of the'steering piston unit which is being-acted upon by the -fluid pressure in the conduit 84 or 85, back to the pressure pump, by means of passages |08` and |01 in the valve casing |0I, to which suitable conduits |09 and |08 respectively are connected. Ball check valves, not shown, willbe provided in the last named conduits to prevent the fluid pressure pump 4| from forcing liquid back through the line 84 or 85, not being utilized at the time. The fluid pressure is directed to the rotary valve element |0| through conduits |02a and |02b, leading frompump 4|.

Thelower end of the shaft |0Ia on which the valve element |0| rotates may be providedwith a pulley or sprocket I0|b and operable by means of a belt or chain |0|c, trained around a similar pulley or sprocket |09', keyed to the lower end of the steering wheel shaft IIO, whereby the valve element |0| may be rotated and cause fluid pressure to ilow to one end f the steering piston unit 15. or the other end, as desired.

steering wheel 40. accessible to the operator at the operators station 39 and comprises a plurality oi' valves 43 of a suitable type for the purposes of the invention. OneA of the valves will control the supply of pressure iluid to the cylinder I9. One of the valves 43 will control the passing of fluid simultaneously through suitable conduits to the cylinders 30. Another of the valves 43 will supply pressure fluid posite ends of the cylinders 44. 'I'he cylinders 44 are pivotally mounted at their rear ends at 45 so as to swing up and down, and in the cylinders 44 are pistons 46, the piston rods 41 of which are pivotally connected to their front ends at 48 to brackets 49 attached to opposite sides of the scraping and holding body section or rear section oi the vehicle body, sides I3 of the latter.

By the introduction of fluid pressure medium at the rear ends of the cylinders 44 to act upon the pistons 46, the piston rods 41 will be actuated to rock the rear body section of the vehicle to the dotted line position of Figure 2. Admission ofthe pressure fluid medium to the front ends of the cylinders 44, on the other hand, will compel rearward movement of the pistons 46 and cause a movement of the rear body section of the vehicle from the dotted line position of Figure 2 to the full line position in which it may perform its dirt scraping and receiving function.

By reference to Figures 2 and 4 particularly, it will be seen that mounted on the rear frame members 1 and 9, by being attached by'welding or in any suitable way, are power cylinders 50 in which are received the operating pistons, 5|. 'I'he pistons 5| have piston rods 52 pivotally connected at their front ends at 53 to the front portions of the sides I0 of the front scraping and closing section of the vehicle. Another of the valves 43 controls the admission ofthe pressure medially supplied by the pump 4| to the front and rear Instead of supplying the vehicle of my construction with motive power and steering mechanism as described. it is within the scope of my invention to provide the vehicle with a conventional towing means Ii 3 pivotally connected to the front axle 25 at 25a and the rod 82 at |I4, whereby the `vehicle may be pulled by a tractor or similar towing vehicle. It will be understood that under the above conditions the iluid pressure pump 4I and conduits connected thereto will be controlled from the said towing vehicle.

A valve board-42 is located in front oi' the ends of the cylinders 50, there being one of these cylinders 50 at each side of the rear body section of the vehiclev supported in the manner described.

Having in mind that the front section and frame members of the vehicle are slidable rearwardly and forwardly relatively to the rear body section and frame members, it is obvious that such relative movements of the parts may be controlled through the said valve 43 supplying the fluid pressure medium from the pump 4I to the cylinders 50 at opposite sides of the pistons 5| therein. Suitable cut-out portions II5 of the sides I0, are provided to permit the full rear- ,ward operation of the members I0, which would be prevented by the ends of braces pivoted at 39 and 90.

`The foregoing having-presented the essential structural and operating features of construction of my vehicle, I will now describe the operation thereof in conjunction with the illustrations in the drawings, and particularly referring to Figures 2 and 3.

In Figure 3, the vehicle parts are arranged for traveling movement from one place to another under power generated by the motor 38. To effect a scraping action and a dirt loading action, one of the valves 43 is ilrst operated to admit fluid pressure to the cylinder 50 to cause a movement of the front and rear body sections apart from each other to a position as substantially shown in Figure 2. Another of the valves 43 is then operated to permit uid to leave the cylinders 30 thereby permitting a downward move- 81 and 88 ment of the rear portion of the scraper, the weightv tothe opat the upper portion of the of the scraper being effective to force tluld from the cylinder $0. This downward movement is continued until the scraper blade I 6 contacts the ground whereupon the valve 43 controlling such downward movement will be operated to prevent the iiu'ther escape of uid from the cylinders 30. In such position, the front end of the scraper will occupy a higher position of elevation with respect to the ground than will the rear end and the scraper I2 will be positioned abovethe surface of the ground so as not to interfere with the scraping action of th blade I3. The motor 38 may'then be operated to drive the entire body forwardly and effect a scraping action by the blade I6 to ll the rear section of the scraper' with a load of dirt.

When the rear vehicle section has been lled as much as possible by the action of the. scraper I6, the front section of the body of the vehicle and the frame may be lowered relatively to the wheels I by operating a selected one of the valves 43 to permit the fluid pressure medium in the cylinder I9 to pass therefrom. This will cause a lowering of the front end of the vehicle body and permit the scraper blade I2 of the scraping and closing section of the vehicle bo'dy to move into engagement with the earth. Thereupon, by manipulation of a certain valve 43 controlling the iluid pressure medium entering the cylinders 50, the pistons I may be operated to pull rearwardly the front frame and body section of the vehicle, the frame members 3, 4 and 5 sliding in this case into the frame members 1, 81 and 9 by telescopic action. The scraper I2, by this operation will scrape and gather earth sufciently to complete the filling of the rear body section of the vehicle and ensure a maximum load being scraped into the vehicle body without the necessity of employinsr a pushing action of an additional traction vehicle such as a tractor in the manner required by many Scrapers now in common use.

Assuming that the operation of completing the filling of the vehicle body has been effected and the front and rear parts of the vehicle body and fra-me have been moved toward each other, as shown in Figure 3, appropriate valves 43 may then be operated to admit fluid pressure to the cylinders I9 and 30 to cause relative downward movement of the pistons in these cylinders to elfect an upward movement of the body and frame and obtain the necessary clearance of the scraper body from the ground somewhat as illustrated in Figure 3. Thereupon, the motor 38 may be operated to effect a travel movement of the vehicle over the ground to the site where the dirt is to be deposited and when said site is reached, the pistons 5I will be again operated, this time to push forwardly the piston rods 52.

By reason of the location of the cylinder I9 with respect to the pump 4l and valves 43, it is necessary to conduct pressure fluid a considerable distance in order to effect an elevating movement of the front end of the vehicle body. Since the iiuid must be under considerable pressure, there would be considerable danger of breakage of the conduit if a flexible conduit of considerable length were provided as would be necessary to compensate for themovement of the cylinder I9 relative to the pump 4I. In order to prevent the necessity of a flexible conduit of excessive length and to compensate for relative movement of the cylinder I9, there is provided a novel coupling for connecting the exible conduit 21 to the valve control conduit. Referring to Figure 2, the valve control conduit is indicated by 21a and` comprises a rigid cylindrical tube secured with respect to the frame member 8. Blidably receivable within the tube 21a is a second cylindrical tube 2lb which is se cured to the end section I I for movement therewith and is coupled to the flexible conduit 21. A suitable packing gland (not shown) may be provided at the point 21o to prevent leakage of fluid from the end of the tube 21a. In this manner, the tubes 21a and 2lb are telescopically movable with respect to each other on movement of the front and rear ends of the scraper toward and away from each other and are operative to transmit uid under pressure to the conduit 2l. It will be apparent that the steering piston control conduits 84 and B5 may be similarly fabricated and supported on the side frame members 3 and 6 by suitable means, as the straps'IlI and H2.

If the dirt is to be deposited in a layer form for spreading, as it drops fromthe vehicle body, the distance of pushing forward of the rods 62 may be regulated to control the opening movement of the front end of the vehicle body by limiting the forward movement cf the closing plate or member Il a distance depending upon g thickness of the stream of dirt to be spread. In this manner, the contents of the vehicle body previously loaded thereinto by the scraping actions described will be deposited upon the ground at the place to which the earth is to be moved, in a self evident manner.

For facilitating the depositing action of the dirt on the ground and/or spreading, it will, of course, be understood that the operator at the control station 39 will operate the valve 43 controlling the pistons in the cylinders 44 and effect a rocking upwards of the rear body section to produce a dumping action thereof for emptying the same through the space between the front scraper I2 and the rear scraper I6.

After an unloading of the dirt fromthe vehicle body, the valves 43 will then be operated to effect an operation of the various cylinders to move the front and rear sections of the body toward each other to the position as shown in Figure 3. The vehicle may then be returned at travel speed to the place where the dirt is to be again gathered or collected into the body and when the vehicle reaches such place, the pistons 5I will be operated to expand the frame members and sections of the body to the positions shown in Figure 2, and the pistons 22 and 34 will be controlled to cause a relative lowering of the frame members and body in respect to the wheels I Vand 2 ready-for another dirt scraping and hauling operation.

I believe it is new in the art to avail of a vehicle structure which is made in sections, each of which is equipped with scraping means whereby a forward scraping and a rearward scraping action of members of the vehicle body may be produced so as to ensure the complete or maximum filling 0i the scraper body in the manner hereinbefore set forth.

Although there is shown a telescopic tubular construction comprising the parts 3-9 for mounting the front and rear sections of the vehicle body for relative movement toward and away from each other, it will be understood that any other suitable connection permitting such movement may be employed in place of the parts 3-9 for this purpose. It will also be understood that suitable driving means for moving the sections of the body toward and away from each other may be employed in place of the hydraulic iorce to move said means comprising the pump di and the connections therefrom to the control valve 43 and the hydraulic cylinder B.

It is further to be understood that the form of the invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes in the shape, size and arrangement of the parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention.l
